I was hesitant to pick up the Skeletool because it doesn’t have scissors and in my 16 years of carrying a Leatherman everyday I’ve found the scissors to be the most commonly used tool. A skeletool became available for a really really great price and... I’ve carried it every day for the last two years. My blast, wave, wave +, surge, rebar and charge are all awesome and all collecting dust

I've been carrying the skeletool sx for a few months. Took off the clip and swapped the blade for sak scissors. It was okay but I would always just use the bits with either my leatherman bit extender or my topeak wrench. I started carrying the knifeless rebar and I like it a lot more. Swapped the bit extender for the bit adapter.

For me when it comes to EDC, style, weight, comfort/ergonomics and price are what matters to me. For a fixed blade EDC knife, I recommend the Bradford Guardian 3s in 3D micarta. Horizontal belt carry and easy to conceal. Amazing knife. For folding knives, I recommend the Bestech Paladin, Bestech Swordfish, Civivi Praxis or Civivi Baklash. The Ontario Rat 1 and R2D2, Syderco PM2, or Benchmade 940-1 are also good options depending on your budget. The Kershaw Dividend is also a good option if you want something smaller. Overall I think the Civivi knives are the best value. I don’t carry a flashlight because I find my phone light sufficient for most tasks. I have bigger flashlights in my car and around the house if I really need. I also prefer a more comfortable leather travelers wallet. It’s slim but not hard like the wallet featured in this video. Cheers!

Nice dump bro. I'm into minimalist as well. Thing is, most of my gear is budget or at least budget-ish. I use a Kinzd leather wallet, I carry a Taurus G2S 9mm, albeit somewhat modified. (They actually are VERY reliable - at least mine is. 2000+ round down range without a hiccup.) Upgraded striker guide & springs, trigger, magazine, and guide rod assembly. My flashlight is the ThruNite T1. The have tail magnets as well and tend to have higher turbo outputs than Olight as well as orange-peel reflectors. I also carry a drop point Boker Plus Kalashnikov, as well as an EdcFans RUK (small utility blade multi tool). I always have a smaller backup blade & flashlight. I admire your choice to EDC carry. The way I see it, any right we end up not using, we end up losing.

Based on what you were saying about your views off knife fighting and liking knives with the finger ring, I’d encourage you to check out some karambits out there (if you haven’t already) I must prefer to grapple than just strike and the curve of the blade tends to be much more “trapy” than a straight blade can be, though it does take some practice to learn different techniques but then knife fights don’t tend to be very drawn out anyway.
